Chapter 106: Siege
The night was lonely, and the red robe on Liu Moyan's body had been soaked with sweat, and the strands of hair on his forehead fell down, rolling down his cheeks and chin little by little, and then sliding down his chin towards the night sky, leaving a little bit of luster among the branches and leaves of the trees that the man walked by.
Liu Moyan has been on the road for a day and night, since the moonlight rose that night, the sky was silvery, until the darkness of this night was silent, the moonlight was faint, and thousands of horses galloped for a thousand miles, and finally found the dense forest that the spies said, because the road was rugged, the woods blocked the road, I had to abandon the BMW, and rushed with my own light skills, the forest was extremely vast, occupying most of the mountains, flying by light power in the mountains and forests, for an hour in a row, the consumption of its internal force was huge, that is, with Liu Moyan's skills, it was only deep, and it was a little unbearable.
It's just that no matter how much he feels that the meridians are in pain because of the operation of his power, he can't stop Liu Moyan's almost self-harming action, because the spies replied to him, so he can't care about anything.
Duan Jinrui set off to Mount Tai to seal Zen on the second day of the ninth month, and he naturally followed the team of people around him, so Liu Moyan was not worried about his safety, and the protection of the prince's side could not be incomplete, and now the eyes of the people were focused on Duan Jinrui's body, if something happened to him, it would really be a bloody storm.
It's just that Liu Moyan neglected the stupidity that some people can achieve under the wall in a hurry, Duan Jinrui arrived at Mount Tai on September 11, the sealing ceremony was cumbersome and solemn, lasting for three days, and more than half of the soldiers and horses are now stationed in Mount Tai according to the custom, Duan Jinrui only returned with less than half of the people, and less than half of the people also had two thousand guards, plus the guards provided by the nearby state capital, the return journey at the beginning was also smooth, and there was no accident, but I didn't expect that on the way, when I was about to arrive in the capital, I actually encountered the so-called mountain bandits.
There are spies among the people who are now following Duan Jinrui, before the army is stationed to rest, they poisoned the nearby water source, although they did not catch all of them, but they were greatly injured, and there was no way, retreating towards the mountains and forests, trapped in them, surrounded by heavy surrounding, not a single fly could fly out, if it were not for the secrecy of this matter, the enemy would not dare to mobilize a large group of soldiers and horses, if it were not for Liu Moyan according to habit, he sent a few extremely skilled spies to follow Duan Jinrui not far away, I am afraid that even the news will not be able to come back.
Duan Jinrui is in danger, and his mind is just full of such a sentence at this moment, no matter how much it is, it can't be tolerated.
The spy who received the news from his companion Feige because it was impossible to keep up with his speed, he was told to gather people, and he went to Zhuang Lijue to report the news, the prince's attack was not trivial, but the unauthorized mobilization of troops and horses should not be underestimated, just hope that Zhuang Lijue is like what he guessed, and he can have a batch of sufficient strength in his hands.
Liu Moyan thought about the location provided by the spies, and did not let go of a trace, every bit of waste of time may be a life.
took a deep breath, but the tired face couldn't hide the pair of sharp and crystal eyes, people were in a high place, standing tall, looking far away, and the phoenix eyes glanced at it lightly, and they took in the surrounding situation.
Among the branches and leaves shrouded in darkness, a little fireworks are flickering, and the orange fireworks are reflected in the man's phoenix eyes, like a wave of spring water boiling, with a frightening brightness, I found it!
"We are just for money, not to hurt our lives, everyone inside, don't resist in vain and lose your lives in vain!"
There were about five hundred black-clothed men, which was not a lot compared to this dense forest, but when they surrounded them on all sides and gathered together, and each of them had a crossbow arrow in his hand pointed at a gloomy hole, it made people feel a chill.
When the man in black finished speaking, there was still no movement inside, as if it was dead silent.
"Master, what should I do?"
Walking up to a tall masked man, the caller asked in a dark voice, "I haven't made a sound since I entered, have you fled?" “
"Escaped?"
The masked man sneered, contrary to his behavior and pretense, it was his warm and free voice, just listening to the timbre, if he didn't listen to the content, I was afraid that he would really deceive a lot of people: "Impossible!" Although the cartilage powder only has a three-day effect, it is an antidote, and it is absolutely impossible to crack it in advance, how can they still have the strength to escape again? Moreover, every inch and every centimeter in this forest has long been known, and he has nowhere to escape except this exit! “
"Then the subordinates sent someone in to investigate?"
The deputy reacted immediately, and the masked man waved his hand: "No need, I didn't bring many people, there are all remnants of the defeated generals, occupying the advantage of geographical advantages, sending people in, and sending them to death in vain, since they occupy a good situation, why do you need to attack the other's strengths with your own shortcomings?" “
The man smiled suspiciously, a man in black next to him took a torch in his hand, turned his head, and the man handed it to the deputy who came over to report it, his chin was lightly raised, and he looked in the direction of the cave entrance: "Isn't there a good way for the people to catch prey, go, send someone to pile up some firewood and grass at the entrance of the cave, you personally light it, I want to see today, whether he has the patience to survive the fumigation, or I have the patience to force them out one by one!" “
"The master is wise, and his subordinates will do it!"
Thick smoke billowed and flames rolled in strange and terrifying shapes, taking advantage of the direction of the southeast wind, towards the dark mouth of the cave.
In the cave, Duan Jinrui held the incomparably valuable sword in one hand, and dug up a burst of dust with those ordinary soldiers, while the other hand was raised, covering his mouth and nose with his sleeve, even if he covered most of it, he still couldn't help the urge to cough, his ears were already full of coughing sounds, he glanced at the smoke that filled the belly of the cave, and then at the mountain wall that had only been dug less than halfway, and suddenly clenched the long sword in his hand, with a resolute look in his eyes: "Stop!" “
Even at such a critical moment, everyone still involuntarily paused the order in their hands, and they looked at Duan Jinrui with a somewhat numb look on their faces.
Looking at it, there are only three or four hundred people left beside him now, but as many as half of them have been poisoned, and more than 2,000 soldiers on the return journey have been victimized by spies, and most of them can't answer the capital, and the rest are also relatives, otherwise, why hide here and be caught in an urn?
"Your Highness, ahem, what's wrong?"
Hu Heng hurriedly came to ask him, his smiling Maitreya Buddha-like face was climbed by black ash, and he looked like a cook.
